Users trying to access the Eskom online load shedding schedule service were greeted with the rather ironic message ‘Service Unavailable’. <\/p>\n
The Eskom website, which boldly stated that there was ‘load shedding in progress’, invited users to search for load shedding schedules<\/a> on their website. The service was however not available, leaving visitors without access to this vital information.<\/p>\n The possible consequences of load shedding were highlighted yesterday<\/a> when Internet Solutions had to employ emergency measures to avert client disruptions after they were the victim of Eskom load shedding and a failed generator.<\/p>\n The Eskom Group Communication Department’s phone number was unavailable this morning.<\/p>\n Image available here: http:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/photos\/showphoto.php?photo=2167<\/a><\/p>\n
